Simon is 13 years old
Let x be Simon's age
Thus 4 years ago his age was (x - 4) and 2 years from now his age is (x + 2)
Hence 5(x - 4) = 3(x + 2)
distributing both sides gives
5x-20 = 3x + 6
subtract 3x from both sides of the equation
5x - 3x - 20 = 6
2x - 20 = 6
add 20 to both sides
2x = 6 + 20 = 26
divide both sides by 2
x =
= 13

Sum of 5 times z and 4 divided by two is 7.
Answer:
The answer to your question is: 3.7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Kam can make 72 cookies/ 3 hours
Madison can make 120 cookies/4 hours
Time to make 200 cookies together = ?
First, calculate the number of cookies make per hour
Kam 72 ---------------- 3
x ---------------- 1 hour
x = 72/3 = 24 cookies/h
Madison
120 ------------- 4 hours
x --------------- 1 hour
x = 120 / 4 = 30 cookies
Now we write and equation where "t" will be time
24t + 30t = 200 and solve it
54t = 200
t = 200/54
t = 3.7 hours
